“The Last Day of Retrograde,” a dark indie comedy that has a heavy helping of local scenes, has been released on Apple TV and Amazon Prime.
Set in Palo Alto in the 2010s, Fetsy, a turbulent recent college grad, must cobble together a last second theatrical performance to secure an artist residency, a pitch for the indie film says.
Against an accidental drugging, infidelity, unbridled libidos, and mental breakdowns, her ragtag troupe must work together to put on a show for a zany gallery owner, Christine Taylor Rose.
Helmed by producers Haley Baldwin and Brad Burke, the film features Sarah Siliva-James, Samantha Alexa and Winston Wang.
A statement by the filmmakers says that “representation is seen on every level of this production with a majority LGBTQ+ cast and crew.”
They go on to say, “This ensemble indie dark comedy is perfect for viewers seeking a quirky story, lovers of California, compatriots of the arts, fans of cringy one-liners, and LGBTQ characters that avoid stereotypical portrayals.”
